Bio-accelerated weathering of ultramafic minerals with Gluconobacter oxydans

Bio-accelerated weathering of ultramafic minerals with Gluconobacter oxydans

Abstract Ultramafic rocks are an abundant source of cations for CO2 mineralization (e.g., Mg) and elements for sustainability technologies (e.g., Ni, Cr, Mn, Co, Al). However, there is no industrially useful process for dissolving ultramafic materials to release cations for CO2 sequestration or mini...
